Job description

About Fluidstack

We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.

We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI.

How We Operate

• Be a barrel. Full autonomy. Own things end to end, take on scope without being asked, no permission required to operate outside your core role.

• Insane urgency. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.

• Reason from first principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.

• Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.

• Build something that actually matters. If you're going to spend your time, spend it on something that matters to the world.

The Data Center Operations Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on

• Operate at the scale of a nation, not a building. Gigawatt-scale infrastructure, growing fast. You won't just run a data center; you'll run infrastructure the size of a G7.

• Fly the plane while it's being built. Running flawless operations inside a live construction zone, adapting in real time and turning the pace of build-out into our advantage. You will redefine operational excellence.

• Write the playbook, don't inherit it. Most operators step into someone else's system. Here you build one, leaving your fingerprints on how the whole company runs. As we scale 100x, you'll set the standards, shape the operating model, and grow the team by the thousands.

Role Scope

• Run the night shift. Work 7 PM to 7 AM, keeping receiving, staging, and parts delivery moving while the site runs around the clock.

• Operate forklifts, pallet jacks, and other warehouse equipment safely to receive, move, stage, and ship critical infrastructure at high velocity.

• Load, unload, inspect, and organize incoming hardware, ensuring every shipment is accounted for and ready for deployment.

• Pick, pack, and deliver parts quickly and accurately so technicians and engineers always have what they need to keep the data center moving.

• Maintain an organized, clean, and deployment-ready warehouse, keeping inventory accessible and material flowing efficiently across the site.

• Run inventory counts, stock replenishment, and asset tracking with precision, maintaining accurate inventory and preventing operational delays.

What We're Looking For

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly,

• You're available to work nights, 7 PM to 7 AM, on a consistent rotation.

• You've worked in a warehouse, distribution center, manufacturing environment, construction site, or other hands-on operational setting where safety, speed, and accuracy matter.

• You're comfortable operating forklifts or are willing to become certified, and you take pride in moving material safely and efficiently.

• You're dependable, physically active, and enjoy work that keeps you on your feet while solving real operational problems.

• You stay organized in fast-moving environments, take ownership of your work, and don't wait to be told what needs to get done.

• You communicate well, work effectively as part of a team, and understand that every shipment, pallet, and part plays a role in keeping critical infrastructure online.

• Bonus: Experience with warehouse management systems, barcode scanners, shipping and receiving, inventory control, data center hardware, or high-growth operational environments.

Salary & Benefits

• Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).

• Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.

• Health, dental, and vision insurance.

• Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.

Physical Requirements

• Work in non-climate-controlled environments, including active construction areas, data halls, electrical and mechanical rooms, and outdoor spaces. Temperatures can be high or low, and conditions can be humid, loud or dusty.

• Lift, carry, push and pull up to 40 pounds on your own.

• Sit, stand, walk, kneel, bend and crouch for long periods, including full shifts on your feet.

• Wear the required personal protective equipment (PPE), such as hard hats, safety glasses, steel-toed boots, gloves and hearing protection, and follow site safety rules.

• Climb stairs and ladders, and move around equipment, cable trays and uneven surfaces.

We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
